This might be a stupid question, but is anyone bringing a camera cause I need some shots for the calender.

I'm pretty sure there will be plenty of cameras. Cesar, Lesper, and Kewscott usually have theirs.

if you dont mind getting to gilman springs road before the ride begins . . . there are a ton of good roads between there and palm springs. Again, it is a bit of a drive, but should be fairly un-crowded
But - ya - the best roads are south of me in san diego county.

I know, and that was a gay bar. I hear it all the time.I assure you; I like girls!(women) My other nick name is DP sailor. which sounds a little limp wristed too. let me explain . .
My name is Jake Beagle ( Be-auj-lee) So everyone calls me beagle(beeg-ul). And I have a sailboat in Dana Point.
Now I have to bring my girlfriend on Saturday so no one (none of the guys) will be afraid of me.

thanks cesar... i spoke to him on the phone today. he sounds ok... cant really tell anything happened to him. he says he feels fine too, not like hes dying or anything. i might be able to go this weekend afterall.

you guys wanna do GMR? its probrably one of the more famous canyon runs here in southern cali and if you guys wanna avoid traffic, thats a killer place to go. not sure if its open though...

Actually, the Regal Beagle was not a gay bar in Three's Company.
Jack, Larry, and Ralph Furley all took their dates there.
It was the hot spot for everyone to go on dates. (I watched too much tv in the 80's)

So is it just all my buddies giving me crap saying it was a gay bar? I have never seen the show. Am I that gullible?

And Ghost ; Hope not to sound too new, but what is GMR??

GMR, man that place got some pretty sharp turns. Just a reminder, I'm not no proffesional driver so I hope we don't go too fast cause I might have some trouble keeping up. This will be my first drive with you guys so give me some headers on what to expect.

The SB cruise is a lot of fun because it's not a white knuckled, flying through the turns, on the verge of spinning out like some other cruises *cough cough Malibu cough cough*
I think of the SB meets as more of a spirited pleasure cruise

it is fairly difficult if your trying to attack it. just go at your own pace, makes all roads easy.

there are 2 decreasing radius turns up there that always get me (i either spinout or end up understeering into the left lane).

I'll be bringing my carmera, don't know about my video camera though.

I Never been to GMR, Big Bear or Angeles Crest so I would look foward to any of those places. Hope this meet will be good since the last sb meet sucked donkey *****.

I'm actually thinking the same thing....I guess I would rather do something new and get stuck in traffic then do the same-o and get stuck in traffic. New scenery...but we definately need to post a speed limit on ourselves...

Looks a lot like Malibu to me.
